5* Character Guide & Reroll Tier List [Octopath Traveler: Champions of the Continent]

- I'm sure you're all wondering who you should be rerolling for in CotC, and today I'm here to give my thoughts! I'll be taking a look at each of the starting 8 5* units and breaking down how useful they are, both now and in the future! Additionally, since the average player isn't going to have all of the 5*s to just throw in a team, I've listed some 4* units that have some neat synergies with the 5* units that you can try out!
Remember everyone, this is just my opinion; feel free to reroll for whoever you want! There is no "wrong reroll target", have fun the way you want to have fun :)

Just gotta say man, you are criminally undersubscribed. Your videos are high quality, informative, and easy to follow. I know this game is just kicking off in the states and Europe, so hopefully it leads to a wider following for both it and you. Thanks so much, and keep up the great content!
Appreciate the kind words! Thanks for enjoying the content!
Agreed, i just subbed.
@@ShizukatzCotC Get on streaming on launch if possible, id like to keep an eye on your progress! :D
@@7SGThenkai I said this in the in-depth intro video which you might not have watched but I'm not planning on playing EN CotC xD
I just plan on using my knowledge from JP as a basis for my content :)
@@7SGThenkai Same
Quickest way to re-roll is to go back to the Title screen, hit Options, and then choose Delete Account. This lets you start over from the beginning cutscene without having to redownload voices (or the whole game).
Still i am 7 hours in and i still got no 5 star character 😶 i mean my luck is shit
And after i see all the stuff and infos, i think i go with Theo as the Starter 5 Star because the Dancer dont help me if i am not getting another character 😅, she is not strong only giving buffs to my 3, 3 stars character so i have only 4 characters to play with
So regen character is better
@@zerom.7642 nah man, u just have skill issues
Awesome job with this video! The material was incredibly well presented and informative, without being long-winded. For me, it's really easy to get overwhelmed stepping into a new game with so much to learn, but you made it really approachable.
Gives me vibes of PhoenixMaster videos from the days of Fire Emblem: Heroes haha
Awesome! For new players like myself to this game, these types of videos are very helpful. Keep them coming.
Just a headsup, in Sofia's section I say that she inflicts 30% Ice Def Down while the text on-screen says 25%. It is actually 30%; the text is just my bad :^)

Fiore, Sigrid, and Lynette on my first roll. Thank you for this list!!!
I legit just started playing today and got extremely lucky with getting viola, Lynnette, 2 Sophia, and Gilderoy. Watching your video was exactly what I wanted to hear. Straight to the point and easy to understand. You got a new sub from me. Looking forward to the content.
Rolled Viola, Fiore, Gilderoy and some nice 4*'s, especially shelby, that ailment resist from the back row is SO good.
How ? I still got no 5 star only the starter 😑
Thanks for this vid, I started on my one device got Sofia and liked her ice attacks, then I tried on my phone and got Viola, I kinda like them both lols but I might just stick w/ the Viola acct. Quality content right here man! I subbed so quick. Looking forward to your future vids esp guides for cotc. 💕
This was *extremely* good, I feel like I understand things a whole lot more!
Great video. I've been pre-registered for ages and finally got to download it this morning, to play tomorrow.
I haven't watched any guide videos on it yet, so this video was super helpful.
Liked, subscribed to watch your additional guides in the future, and commenting for the algorithm.
Edit: Apparently I need to watch not just your videos in the future, but also all of the helpful videos I see you've already posted! Time to binge your channel today. Thanks for all you do!
Liked and subscribed. Awesome video, very informative and concise.
Looking forward to watching more of your guides!
on my first reroll I got Milliard and then got Gilderoy and Sofia on the summon. I was very excited to jump into this game with three 5* and now even more excited knowing they're good pulls. i hope we can all have a good time with this game!
Nice I got Millard and viola on my first 30 mins or so of playing :)
Giving a sub just for the level of detail on your character analysis
Thank you for your hard work, excellent guide 👍
I'm so excited tomorrow. As I love octopath traveler because of its turn based battle system and its amazing artwork.
Ok. U will be my main guild for this game now. I’m hyped. Subbed
Dude your video looks great! Keep it up!
Holy shit, thank you dude. That character index was a life saver playing on JP.
Great video! Thanks for the guide.
Thank you so much for this! So conflicted now lol! I was Fiora, but that buff singer is also super attractive.
Great to see high quality informative content ! keep it up
This was great! Thanks very much!
You have such a pleasant voice. I look forward to future content!
I've been playing JP for 6 months but the 4 star recommendations for pairing were honestly really helpful, thank dude!
Heya, thank u for the awesome guide! I'm new to Octopath and this really helped me out a lot! Took me 3 hours but got a Lynette 5* + Viola 5* account (Lynette from tutorial summon and Viola from 2nd single blue summon so rubies are safe!) Gonna save for good future banners now.
Bruh, I've been rerolling for days now still have not gotten them together, I did manage to roll Lynette 4* with starting Viola but at point I was already dead set to get them both 5*
ig I’m settling for viola and sofia boys been rerollin’ for 2dayz now so I’m glad I can finally dive right in. Thanks for the guides mate
Good luck on your adventure!
Thank you i needed this! Just downloaded the game. Need to wait for maintenance to finish.
Liked and subbed my dude!!!
Bless all of you guys, for perfect rolls today. Shizukatz - u awesome! GL with channel!
Great guides! I have one question. I rerolled for a while and never got Lynette+Viola combo. I settled with Lynette & Fiore 5* and Scarecrow 4*. So far, I have been happy. However I do struggle with some of the harder hitting elites. That's probably where I would benefit from Viola debuff :(. I am sitting on 600 rubies, should I continue pulling or save for future banner?
If you feel like you need a bit of a boost, rolling another 10-roll or so should be fine.
If you're not enjoying the experience now, consider this an investment to make it to enjoying the experience later :)
Thank you, waiting for the game to come
Man looking at the discord with everyone flexing with their Viola and Lynette made me start over for that perfect reroll. Ended up with 5 star Lynette, Viola, Millard, and Fiore. This took me way to long but it was worth.
Insane start LOL
Time to actually enjoy the game :)
You’re videos absolutely rock
So i did some rerolls and got doble viola and a 4star fior should I keep that account or keep trying for viola and Lynette? Great video btw I came here with 0 knowledge of the game and now have a decent grasp of what should I do thanks to your videos
After triying for 7hr+ of rerolls. I finally got a game with 5 star Fiore, 5 star Viola and 5 star Lynette. Thanks for the well put guide. :)
tried JP after seeing your closed beta video. freakish luck quickly assembled team of SSR centered around Viola and the newly released 'Princess', then blown through everything until hitting a wall hard at the 2nd three bosses. Will be fun this time to actually use strategy to win. Will throughly miss the 'princess' lovely voice though. said 'princess' because it's a spoiler, yea, i spoiled the story by rolling.
I'm glad I watched this video before rerolling. I rolled Lynette first login.
Great content !
I started with Gilderoy in the game. Eventually I got Viola, Fiore, Sofia and other 5* characters. I don’t use Viola but I use other 5*s like Haanit, and Heathcote.
Amazing breakdown! Got a new sub!
ty for the guide like low cahr tier list because 5 star to get it hard
Got lucky on my reroll. 3rd Reroll Account i got viola, lynett and Sigrid. I think this account is good for now 😬
Was going to reroll but got 4.5 viola and gilderoy. Just going to enjoy the game no need to burn myself when I waited forever to play this
did not reroll at all and went into this game without viola, Lynn or even theo + Fiore. Went through game with Millard scarecrow combo. I love Cyrus so much so I might reroll one if I don’t get it, and enjoy the adventure and memory once again.
Quick question man, would you do a video about summons & how to spend your rubies and at what point using it ( like we got either viola / lynette with the guaranteed, now what do we do)
Without giving too much of my video schedule away... coughCYRUScough
My Scarecrow was Missing a Star out of 5 but I'll take it, I also started with Lucetta and 5 Star Millard
I got Viola as my starter and pulled Lynette+Primrose! Should I keep or continue to reroll? Would Lynette+Cyrus be better than the former?
Thank you for the video! I really like Viola, but seeing as i can get her as a 4 star doesn't that mean it would be better to roll for a unit who is only available at 5 stars? Really would love to have Viola, Lynette and Tressa! Oh and may i ask if Runelord Tressa exists in the game or will exist?
Unfortunately, there are no 5* units in the gacha that are ONLY available as 5* unfortunately. All of them can be pulled as 4.5 or 5.
Runelord Tressa is not in the game either, as every character is one of the 8 regular classes :<
Best of luck on your rolls!
@@ShizukatzCotC Ahh, okidoki. Thank you for the answer and thanks for the good luck^^ I wish you luck as well! Maybe the extra classes will get added later so i will definetly save up for Runelord Tressa and Starseer Ophila.
Now that all we get to start of with is 80 rubies and the 3 sacred seals I don’t know if it’s worth rerolling anymore. Would you say that a 5 star Lynette and Fiore party is good? It’s probably the best I’m getting but I’m so greedy for viola and Lynette lol
What's the deal with Sofia? Sometimes I see her at A or even S tier, and other people say she's pretty dependent on the opponent being weak to ice and therefore generally not that great of a character. Is her high tier list rating because of those ice comps you mentioned?
Hey! I see on Game8 sophia/sofia is rated 9.7, is it because of the importance of ice team in the end game?
got Lynette and Viola together so I'm satisfied. i used 600 rubies/whatever on Tressa banner but got shit but i don't really mind lol. I'll start saving now for the next strong 5star banners
Are there any new units added to the pool of any of the banners when you don't win a character banner? i.e H'aanit being added to the banner list after her banner? from what i understood is that collab will not but what about the rest of the upcoming 5*? will you be able to get them in a banner pulling for someone else or will you have to wait for their banner to rerun?
The google spreadsheet has 3 distinctions
Gacha
Gacha (limited)
Gacha (collab)
Would it be correct to assume only gacha is added to the pool while the others are only available during their banner?
New characters (as long as they are perma and not Limited) typically get added to the Permanent pool about a month or two after their initial release.
That being said, a new character WILL also appear in other new characters' banners as someone you could potentially pull. For example, H'aanit would be the first new 5*, followed by Heathcote, and H'aanit should also appear in the drop table for Heathcote's banner.
I got Theo, three 4 stars and three 3.4 stars but they're one light one wind and the rest are lighting. I had already linked the game to my Google account. Should/can I start over?
Hey, thanks for the video! can you confirm again if Sofia's 2t and 3t - 15% ice def down debuff effects actually stack to 30%? It seems like the turn count does stack but am unsure if the percentages stack as you say.
The percentages do indeed stack.
I was trying to get Viola and Lynette but I ended up with 2 Viola and 2 Theo, is it better than I try and get both Viola and Lynette or should I stop there ?
Oh man I have a dupe lynette but i used the awakening stone already, have I made a big oopsi?
So I rerolled before watching thus video and didn't know anything about who I should reroll for. I was just like... I'll reroll till I get 2 five stars and I got viola and Lynette on my third reroll. Feeling pretty good right now lmao
hey can you give me some advice please? Ok so been doing this for hours.. its painful... 10 min to do tutorial again and again lol.. all that clicking...
is this a good team to stay at?
Starting off I got viola... then the 10 pull i got 4.5 MIllard, 4 cless, 4 iris and 5* Fiore... is this good enough to keep?
Yes absolutely! This seems like a fantastic team to start out with. The game is super fun and I'm sure you're itching to get out of reroll hell, and get right into the action :)
Excellent guide! I do have a question, does the game give free units, like event units, etc?
Currently there are only 3 guaranteed units which are the Nanna, Jose, and Conny you get at the start. Later on, there will be Arenas as part of the added content, where you can fight against Superboss-level enemies that require a lot of strategy, but if you manage to win, you can recruit the Superboss character to your team as a free 5*!
Thank you for the reply! Oh so the game doesn't really provide free units regularly like in echoes of mana. I was planning on playing through the game with only the given characters but it looks like it would be too hard.
Does the debuff and buff in this game stacking? Or they replace with the strongest effect?
Planning on going in-depth in a future video but they do indeed stack!
A couple examples of this in the video are Sophia having two 15% Ice Def Down debuffs that stack with each other, as well as Viola's Anti-Guard 20% and the 10% from Fire AoE!
Is going from 4.5 to 5 star not a huge investment? I ended up getting 4.5 Lynette
I got Lynette at the start, so that's cool!
I didn't play the game yet, but i saw many guides on google and Cyrus was everytime in the top tier... What do you think about this character since i don't see it in your video. Do you recommend to reroll to get him?
I think Cyrus isn’t in the game yet. We have to wait for his banner to show up just like the Tressa Banner.
As the other reply mentioned, Cyrus is not in the game yet. He was introduced in JP in the 5th month. That being said, he is definitely a top tier unit and I would recommend saving for him!
I just got a 5* Lynette, but I'm really liking my 4* Iris (currently at the 3rd awakening) and level 65. should I switch to lynette? I also use iris for when I want to boost my ice attacks, because I have Sofia and Ramona, and Shelby who all get their ice attacks boosted from Sofia's ice defense down
Lynette would definitely be the better option in this case.
Iris is a dancer primarily focused on Physical attacks, so her Ice attacks are quite weak. The boost that you could get on Sofia and the others by using Lynette's teamwide Magic Buff & MDef Debuff is much more than the damage Iris could provide.
can you update the new information character in the spreadsheet about the Triangle Strategy Crossover characters and their Info. Thanks!
I've been quite busy for a while now, which is why it's so behind ^_^" but will get to updating it as soon as I can. Thank you for your patience!
After a few rerolls I managed to get 5 Lynette as my starting character but didn't get any other 4.5 or 5 stars with my first 10 pulls and tickets. Should I keep rerolling or play the game?
I say keep rerolling if you plan to stay free to play. Try to get Lynette and Viola. At the minimum get 1 of them 5 star and the other 4.5
Wait doesn’t Millard have an aoe light attack? I am using it rn
Really liked the beta. Feels a lot like another eden with the octopath skin which is a good thing.
God I love the octopath artwork.
SAAAAME Octopath art is godddddlike
I'm trying to get Lynette + Viola for days, but seems impossible 😔.
I'm very excited to play this game, but unfortunately because there is a region block I can't play it, it's very disappointing :')
I live in Asia
Check out my "How to Pre-Register"etc. video for some info that might help you out with bypassing the region block :)
ok, thanks for the help bro
Aaaahh of course I free-roll 2 Lynettes at 5* and immediately use the stone before I watched this video XD What are the oooooodds!? But anyway, thanks for the valuable info!
This is the luckiest i have been in a gatcha game. Got S tier Viole+Lynette 1st time without reroll ^^
Just out of interest, how good is a team consisting of all the octuplets?
They would be workable for up until around Lv35-40 areas. Since their default Level Cap is 40, and it could take quick a while for them to cap out at 60 due to the sheer number of Guidestones required, it's not very practical to try to use them past that point. Not having the Levels means they will be unable to equip stronger Weapons/Armor (since those are simply limited by Character Level in this game).
Is fiore still a beast at 4star? I got a 4 star fiore
Lynette and 4.5 Viola.. hope it wont be too hard to awaken her to 5 later lol
While rerolling on two devices I managed to get Lynette on one and Viola on the other. Neither rolled a 5*s with the free gems. If you had to split this top tier hair which one would you go with?
Hard to say; I would have to see the 4* units available on either account.
I'm tempted to say Lynette as it means you only need 1 more copy of her at any point throughout your career to get her to Special Lv10 eventually, compared to picking Viola where you would need 2.
@@ShizukatzCotC Thanks for the reply! If it changes your answer at all my Viola has Rita, Kurtz, Lucetta, Sigrid, Shelby, Cless, Aslyte, Heinz, Camilla, Fabio, and Iris.
Lynette has Cless, Camilla, Sigrid, Shelby, Laura, Madelaine and Ramona.
Got lynette and millard. Should reroll?
If you only have 1 of the two meta units (that is, Viola/Lynette), is that fine for players looking to play till the end game? I was able to get Viola, Tressa (personal favorite), and Fiore as 5 stars, but my concern is being bottlenecked later due to lack of meta characters and not knowing if I'll ever get Lynette.
Yes that's absolutely fine. Lynette might be a powerful unit for a long time, but she's not the only workable unit. There will be many possible compositions that you can eventually try using for endgame content, and finding those comps and experimenting with your own personal roster is a big part of the fun imo.
@@ShizukatzCotC Thanks for the quick reply! I'll keep that in mind, will probably just stick with this account then.
@@ShizukatzCotC Sorry for the double reply. Something I've really thought about is that if I decide to go meta and roll for a Lynette + Viola combo, is that better than the previous combination? Was curious because I found new free time, and I figured I might as well try my luck.
Been rolling for only 20 minutes and I have yet to see a Lynette, Viola, Theo or Fiore, all I am getting is Gilderoy and millard over and over lol
So I’m guessing you don’t get all the gems anymore? I don’t know why I didn’t pre-order I could’ve sworn I did it installed itself very weird maybe because I’m starting so late but I only start with 30 unless there’s something else I have to do in order to get the 300
I'm not sure on the exact date, but the startup bonuses did have an expiration date on when you could collect them. This could unfortunately mean that fresh accounts start with much less to work with now.
How many top tier characters can you potentially get per reroll?
Hypothetically you could get them all (if you were REALLY lucky), but realistically players are aiming to start with 1 or 2.
Ow man what should I do? I got Viola and 4.5 Tressa in one account and a Lynette and her awakening in other (no more 5*). I don't know which to keep and play with! UPDATED: I rolled 10 on the Viola account and got a 5 * Tressa (got her awakening), and a 4.5 Guilderoy, and NONE on the Duplinette account, I'm going for the Viola one (11 4*+ characters vs 6*+, also wins in this).
Congrats on your pulls! That sounds like a great account to begin your adventure with, have fun!
How important is getting 2+ 5 star characters after rolling?
I think 2 is a pretty decent start. Any more then 3 is even better, obviously, but 2 is probably the minimum I'd start with.
I wish I had watched this video before. I got two Lynette dupes and I used them to awake her
thanks for the tier list...
So how long roughly does it take to "reroll" meaning to get through whatever tutorial crap to get to the "free draws" that can get you a 5 star.
Depends where you want to end your reroll; some players will end the reroll process right after the snowstorm roll, which results in a reroll that takes just a couple minutes. Other players will end after using their rubies, which takes another few minutes.
I had Lynette and viola the first time I entered the game but I did a reset before watching this video 7.7
How do u get a 4.5 viola to 5? Keep lvling max level up to 80? From 60?
Class-Up is performed by using Holy Marks. For a more in-depth explanation, please check out my guide on Hunts & Class-Ups.
Hi is there any effective way to reroll or just redownloading till we get we are aiming for?
It's pretty much just as simple as "roll what you can, and if you don't get what you want, reset".
Depending on your device type it can be either Clear App Data (Android) or Uninstall/Reinstall (iPhone/iPad).
@@ShizukatzCotC oh ty for the answer it is just clearing the app data to reroll every single time can take a quiet long time and I don't believe it is necessary in a single player game unless if there is some ranking system or whatever
Damn. Guess my original roll was pretty killer, got Theo.
Looking forward to play this tomorrow. Does anybody know how long Is the main story?
The main story chapters that are available on-release should run you about 30-40 hours of gameplay.
There will eventually be more story chapters added later on in updates.
I can’t lie I’m still gonna go for Miller idk y just anytime I play a gacha game I always roll for the healer or support character regen good I won’t lie but I want tht cleric lol
*looks at me who got Viola as my starter and Lynette very early* I think I may of been hit by divine luck
Is it just fine to play casually with a single 5 star ( viola ) from the intro ?
Absolutely! It might be a bit more challenging compared to others' experience, but when I first started out in JP, I played the entire first few months of the game with only 1 5* - and it was MILLARD of all people - and did just fine! Go for it :)
It's a shame that the game comes out so soon before Xenoblade 3, as I'd like to give both my full attention, but I'll definitely be putting some time into this game after I finish Xenoblade. Thanks for the tips, hope I don't get too unlucky!
Update: Got Theo as my starting character, fitting because Alfyn was my first in the original. After that I got a 4.5 star Sofia on my first 10-pull, so I'd say I'm off to a good start!
Should I use my awakening stone on Viola or save for something else?
I would use it on Awakening for Viola!
I got Scarecrow then Sofia and Lyentte in summons
Just to be sure....the first champion is random and level 5 automatically correct??
Random yes! Level 5, not sure xD Pretty sure they're supposed to be Level 1.
